You still perform full background and employment verification on the Student, and as long as the reports do not reflect any Bad Habits, usually no problem.

Just like any other business, you need to have an online identity.

No income verification. 

(the city of KC is very block by block...in a green zone, you can take an identical home, but move it .5 miles east or west, and get a 50-100k price difference). an example of a home that I would consider to be in a green zone is at 1928 E 81st Terrace, Kansas City, MO 64132 (if you want to zillow it), this is a good example of a property I would consider to be worth checking out...I would guess their is some underlying issue with it being listed for 75 with a tenant in place at 925, but still, with taxes only being 362, and being right on the edge of the highly sought after Waldo neighborhood, by the numbers seems like a good deal.There are plenty of other great homes to find for 50-100 in the KC metro, but generally speaking they on the outskirts of the metro, and the market rents will not justify the purchase price.

We believe verification beyond platform minimums is important. 

Well, lenders are concerned about property flippers over inflating values in a short period of time, the lender lending at 96.5% of an over inflated value and being stuck with an asset that is worth less than the money that was lent.This is the reason why when buying from family member, it establishes an "Identity Of Interest Relatinship," aka "Non-Arm’s Length Transaction."

If they are VERY professional, they will have their processes in writing as verification that policies are enforced equally and fairly by their entire staff.6.

If you pay their loan off, there will be a verification of rent to qualify them for a loan, so kiss their chances goodbye if they miss even one payment in the next 12 months (which they will).So if you can live with all of this, go ahead and do it.

Also, the consultants and lenders are not supposed to be referring contractors because of the possible conflict of interest / identity of interest that HUD requires everyone to avoid. 

@Devyn Caraballo No matter which rehab loan you select, the process is almost identical.
